tables with rounded corners

Hi,

Could anyone please tell me what would be the best and easiest method for creating round cornered tables.

Thanks

You can either use images to create a rounded corner effect, or you can wait for the CSS3 specifications - which feature the border-radius property - to reach the recommendation status, and of course for user agents to actually comply to it; say, a year or two, three...
Go for images.

Thanks Ronald,

You mean, the regular method of using gifs or jpegs in the corner cell?

Yep!

Assuming you're going to use a table for layout purposes, the following articles on A List Apart (http://www.alistapart.com/) may give you some extra info on the subject:

Oo! Oo! Even better:

I forget the address...but do a search for "finetable" in which he's done the coding for you...without images.

Thanks Ronald once again, I have copied the article, will go through and get back.

Thanks Zoobie for the tip the php script, finetable (http://www.hotscripts.com/Detailed/14897.html) is available at hotscripts.com, have downloaded, will give it a try

I'm not very happy about that finetable thingy, it claims to give rounded border with no images, yet it uses images....

Does it? Ha ha! I never checked it...I just figured it was telling the truth because the corners were a bit jagged...
